Huayu: I'm reborn, but you still force me to be a scumbag?

Chapter 313: 1800 Million New Kings of Generation Y

“I’ve done lots and lots of deals.”

“A lot of them are great, really great.”

"You know, the worst thing you can do in any deal is look like you want a deal."

"That will make the negotiating opponent smell blood."

"At this point, you're finished."

“So, the first point of The Art of the Deal.”

"Hide your true thoughts and never let the other person see how much you want what you want."

"Hello, Mark. Hello, Priscilla. Welcome."

Chen Nuo stood at the door of the villa, smiling widely as he opened his arms to the young couple who got out of a Bentley.

The enthusiasm shown is just like what's happening in Palm Beach right now.

During the day in September, the temperature around 9 degrees will only make people feel comforted, not anxious.

After hugging the Jewish man and kissing his Chinese girlfriend, Chen Nuo pointed back and introduced with a smile: "Let me introduce you, this is Crystal Liu, my girlfriend."

Mark Zuckerberg smiled and held out his hand, "Hi, Crystal, nice to meet you."

"Hello Mark. Hello, Priscilla. Nice to meet you. Welcome to our hotel." Liu Yifei said with a smile. She reached out and shook hands with Zuckerberg, and then hugged Priscilla.

Zuckerberg turned around and smiled, "Chen, you are such a lucky guy. I've seen the news. I think for Crystal, no matter how much you get scolded in China, it's worth it."

Chen Nuo walked over with a smile, put his arm around Liu Yifei's waist, and said, "I think so too."

Then he turned around and smiled, "Luckily I have Crystal now, otherwise you don't know how jealous I am every time I see you and Priscilla together. Mark, no wonder you dropped out of Harvard, because you have found the most precious treasure there and took her away, right?"

"Hahahaha." Zuckerberg laughed immediately. "Yes, that's right. You should be the first person in the world to know the truth."

Priscilla also smiled, "Thank you for the compliment, Chen. You are still as funny as ever."

"Just some words from my heart. Well, please come in. It's still too hot outside. Let's get settled quickly, go swimming, bask in the sun, and spend these wonderful few days of vacation together."

Chen Nuo and Zuckerberg walked together, one on the left and one on the right, while Liu Yifei accompanied Priscilla, and they entered the house together.

Linghu, who drove to pick people up, placed the gifts Zuckerberg brought in the living room, then carried the luggage to the guest room on the second floor, and then went to the independent nanny room next to the swimming pool.

After settling in, Zuckerberg said, "Chen, I like your bodyguard very much. I can see that he is a very reliable guy."

Indeed. Especially after spending more than one or two years, he learned to speak English well enough to read, write and answer simple questions. It can be seen that Linghu is not only intelligent but also very perseverant. Apart from his hatred of the United States and Japan, he should have no shortcomings. Chen Nuo added silently in his heart.

"He's been with me for several years, and I trust him. Come on, Mike, I'll show you around your home for the next few days."

Next, Chen Nuo and Liu Yifei took the two of them to look around the front and back yards.

When I sat back on the sofa in the living room and looked out the glass door in front of me, I saw the endless blue sea and sky.

At this time, Zuckerberg was still in the process of starting his own business, and was still a long way from becoming a billionaire in the future.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but say sincerely: "Chen, your house is really great."

Chen Nuo smiled and said, "Actually, I don't spend much time in the United States, so this place is empty most of the time. If you want to come to Palm Beach for vacation in the future, you can stay here. Just let me know in advance and I'll say hello to the property manager here."

Priscilla laughed and said, "Chen, is it true?"

"Of course, I never tell lies to my friends."

Chen Nuo put on a sincere face and said, "I really welcome you to come. This will make me feel that the tens of millions of dollars I spent on buying the house are worth it."

"By the way, what would you like to drink? I don't have any alcohol here, so how about an iced Coke?"

"Of course, we don't like alcohol very much, so Coke is fine."

For the next half day, Chen Nuo was like a hospitable host. Together with Liu Shuijing, he chatted with Zuckerberg and his wife, swam, walked, and basked in the sun. Before they knew it, it was evening.

Considering that Zuckerberg and his friend had come all the way from California and had a tiring journey, they had their meal, agreed on the itinerary for the next day's trip out to sea, and then went to rest.

As soon as she entered the master bedroom on the second floor, Liu Yifei fell on the bed and screamed, "Ah!" "I'm so tired from running around."

"Shh, keep your voice down."

Chen Nuo gently opened the door, stretched his head out and observed the movement in the guest room at the other end of the corridor, making sure that the door was closed.

He still had to be more careful about this Jewish thing. Moreover, he knew clearly that Zuckerberg was learning Chinese. If he really heard something, the harmonious atmosphere created would be gone, and how could he paralyze the other party?

Chen Nuo turned around and looked at the woman lying on her stomach on his big bed, with her butt facing him. Her white dress was pulled up quite a bit without her realizing it, revealing a pair of snow-white thighs.

He said coldly, "Liu Yifei, what did I tell you before? I told you to act naturally, do you understand? If you don't understand Chinese, I'll tell you in English, nature! Is this your acting skills, Liu Yifei?"

Liu Yifei twisted her butt, half turned over, and said impatiently: "What's wrong with my acting? You came over without saying a word and touched my waist without even saying hello. Of course I'm a little uncomfortable. I didn't slap you, which is giving you face."

"I'm your boyfriend now! It's just a hug, how should I say hello? Ah, should I say, excuse me, my dear girlfriend, Crystal, can I hug your waist? You come..."

"Hahaha, actually I don't think it's impossible." Liu Yifei laughed and rolled around on the bed.

As a result, she accidentally rolled up her skirt, exposing not only her thighs but even her buttocks.

Chen Nuo looked at the blue and pink tights, turned his head, sighed, and said: "I really admire you. How old are you? Can you pay more attention to your image?"

Liu Yifei sat up suddenly, pulled her skirt down, glanced at him, and blushed.
But he immediately pretended to be nonchalant and snorted, "One moment you want me to get into the role, and the next moment you want me to pay attention to my image. You are being inconsistent, do you know that?"

"I am contradicting you!" Chen Nuo was so angry that he almost cursed and accidentally hurt the innocent Aunt Liu.

Fortunately, he managed to hold it in in the end, pointed at Liu Yifei, and was ready to say something to teach her a lesson.

As a result, this time it was terrible. Liu Shuijing jumped up, barefoot, stood on the bed, stared at him with eyes wide open, and said, "What were you going to say just now? Did you want to scold me?"

Chen Nuo turned around and walked towards the bathroom, "I can't make it through with you, forget it, I'm going to wash up and go to bed!"

"Ha, what's wrong with you? You're obviously in the wrong. You actually want to scold me? You actually scold a woman! What will you do next? Are you going to hit someone again? Chen Nuo, Chen Nuo, I didn't expect you to be this kind of man. You actually hit a woman!"

"Hehe." Chen Nuo was really too lazy to pay attention to him. Without even turning his head, he sneered, walked into the bathroom, and closed the door with a click.

Liu Yifei yelled into the bathroom: "Hey, you feel guilty, right? I was right, right? Why are you in such a hurry to wash up? How are you going to sleep at night if you haven't told me yet?"

A voice from the bathroom came faintly, "How else can we sleep? You sleep on the floor and I'll sleep on the bed."

However, I don’t know how the two of them slept at the end of the day. In any case, when they went out to sea on the second day, both Liu Yifei and Chen Nuo were a little depressed.

But we went out to sea at eight in the morning, then sat on the yacht to drink some drinks and bask in the sun. When we felt hot, we jumped into the sea to swim for a while, and we all felt refreshed.

Time always passes quickly on the idle and idle sea.

Compared with the disabled people who can't run fast that the horses and oxen encounter in office buildings and construction sites, his speed should be at the Bolt level and disappear in the blink of an eye.

Thanks to the five-star yacht service of the Sea-Lago Club, whether it is the various facilities and equipment on the ship or the meals and drinks provided by the chef, there is nothing wrong with it, which is worthy of the price of US$3 a day.

The Jewish boy, whose face was red from the sun, finally failed to hold on until the end. On the way back in the evening, he talked about the main purpose of his visit.

"Chen, the promotion contract we signed last year was too short, and your remuneration was too little. In view of your current extraordinary success on Facebook, I would like to sign a longer contract with you. What do you think?"

At this time, Xiao Zha and Chen Nuo each held a glass of super low-alcohol cocktail. They leaned on the bow of the yacht, looking at the sunset on the distant horizon. As they looked, Xiao Zha said lightly.

"I think... it's too early." Chen Nuo looked listless and took a sip of the wine in the glass.

Zuckerberg shook his head and said, "It's too late. In fact, the two contracts do not conflict. Instead, the new one replaces the old one. Starting this year, your compensation will increase to $200 million a year. Everything else remains the same."

"Everything as usual?"

"Yes, everything remains the same, except for the addition of a more extensive non-compete agreement. That's all, it can be said that it has no impact on you."

"Broader? Like?"

"For example, some insignificant small websites, there is nothing to say, no difference from the previous ones."

"Oh." Chen Nuo yawned, "Okay, let me take a look at the draft contract first."

Zuckerberg smiled: "OK."

Chen Nuo clinked glasses with him, then turned around and shouted to the woman who had just come out of the cabin, "Hey, Crystal, come here, I have something to tell you..."

"Ha~yawn~, what do you want to say? Go ahead."

"Speaking of you, can you have some tacit understanding with me?"

……

…"Dare to imagine. Never set limits for yourself."

"You know, a lot of great deals can come from some unrealistic fantasies."

"In the beginning, perhaps no one believed that these fantasies would succeed. No one. In fact, everyone who heard about it would think you were a lunatic and a dreamer."

"But you must act as if you firmly believe that you can succeed. And you must use all possible means to make this unrealistic goal known to everyone."

"At this time, everyone will begin to be skeptical."

"And your opponents will have a headache at this time, a very big headache, and they will not know how to solve your problem."

“So, the second step of the Art of the Deal.”

"Bluff, set an exaggerated goal, and publicize it to the world with great fanfare. Make it into a huge problem and throw it at your opponent."

……

It’s been over ten days since I returned to Menlo Park, California from sunny Palm Beach.

Zuckerberg had already sent over the new contract drafted by his company and was waiting for Chen Nuo's reply.

In the new contract, the fee for the image promotion ambassador was indeed doubled from 100 million per year, but at the same time, the number of related companies in the non-compete agreement also expanded sharply.

In addition to MySpace, Zynga, Gowalla, and Foursquare, we also specifically added Twitter, YouTube and other websites that are not completely considered social. All together, they cover almost all the personal information publishing platforms currently on the US market.

As long as the contract is signed and Chen Nuo creates a personal account on the platforms of these related companies, he will be in breach of contract.

At the same time, further restrictions were imposed on Chen Nuo's external words and deeds. Not only was he not allowed to post negative opinions about Facebook, he was also prohibited from talking about Mark personally.

Actually, this was inconsistent with what he had said to Chen Nuo on the yacht: "an insignificant small company" and "except for the increase in costs, there are no other changes." If Chen Nuo had really believed him, he would definitely regret it.

But...Jewish Ma thinks that business is business.

Even though this trip to Palm Beach was considered a five-star experience, so what?

As a qualified CEO, it is his responsibility to reduce the cost to his company.

It has nothing to do with personal feelings, does it?

At the same time, you can't blame him.

Because of the importance of the nuochen account to Facebook, it is now a world apart from what it was a few months ago.

The US social network market report released in September 2009 showed that his Facebook ranked first with a market share of 9%, a significant increase of 61.59% from 2008% in the same period of 19.94.
Many analysts believe that the contribution made by the nuochen account can only be described as outstanding.

Not only did it take advantage of the momentum from Michael Jackson's death, but it also rose to 1500 million by the end of June.

Later in July, fans all over the Internet began to remember the King of Pop, and it became a symbol of some kind. After more than two months, his number of followers exceeded 2 million.
Let’s put aside the second place, Lady Gaga, who has 900 million followers, almost double the number.
This creates a unique and absolute gap.

Similarly, data from ComScore shows that on the days of each month when he actively posts, the total time Facebook users spend on the site increases by 5% to 7%.

What is this concept?
Mark could only thank God that Chen Nuo was a Chinese and a layman in the field of science and technology, and the words of some American experts had not yet reached his ears.

That was why he was so anxious to renew his contract with Chen Nuo, not because he didn't know there were still two and a half years left.

But he was afraid that this person would come to his senses and really have to wait two years to talk again. By then, who knows how many times more he would have paid!
This trip to Palm Beach also made him rethink this celebrity user on his website.

In his opinion, Chen Nuo's integration into American society and the way the American upper class views him have surpassed that of any person who is not a mainstream European or American.

At least among the row of villas around Mar-a-Lago, as far as he knows, there is only one that belongs to a non-white person.

He is definitely not a bumpkin from a third world country who has never seen the world.

It's definitely not something that can be dismissed simply.
So, now, a week after sending the message and still not receiving a reply, he is actually feeling a little uneasy.

At this time, Mark Zuckerberg was sitting in front of his computer in his office, busy.
Suddenly, Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook's chief operating officer, who is currently in charge of sales and marketing, acquisition partnerships, public policy and communications, knocked on his office door and walked in.

Her brows were furrowed, and she was holding a large magazine-like book in her hands, and she said, "Mark, you have to read this."

Zuckerberg paused what he was doing, looked up and asked, "What's going on?"

The future "Most Powerful Queen of Silicon Valley", "ranked No. 2011 on the 5 Forbes Most Powerful Women List", Sheryl Sandberg, who just jumped from the position of Vice President of Operations at Google, is definitely a tough character who won't frown even if the sky falls.

But now, her face looked extremely ugly.

No, not ugly, but a mixture of surprise and confusion.

It's like suddenly seeing a news report on TV where someone is talking to reporters and saying that Canada and Greenland should be merged with the United States.

She shook her head and said, "You take a look first."

Zuckerberg took the magazine from her.

The magazine cover immediately caught his eye.

This is a Time magazine issue that was just published today, September 2009, 9.

The style of the weekly cover is as simple as ever, not entertaining, but full of a serious business tone.

However, this time it was different from previous issues. The cover of Time magazine, which always prefers men, white people, and power, actually featured an unusually young and handsome black-haired Asian man.

Zuckerberg thought about it and realized that the cover character of the previous issue on September 9 was Edward Kennedy, 7, who had just passed away this month due to illness.

There is a world of difference between the portrait of an elderly man and the cover of this issue.

Are 23 years old?
Given her Asian appearance, it wouldn't be surprising to say she is 17 or 8 years old.

No wonder those European and American girls in junior high and high school on his homepage all regard him as their peer.

The magazine cover has a gray-blue background and is surrounded by Time's iconic red border.

Chen Nuo's face is very large and is located in the center of the picture. Against the gray-blue background, there are no extra patterns to hint at his identity.

The angular face looks unnaturally younger in this unfashionable commercial style composition.

His facial features were extremely clear, and almost every pore on his face could be seen. His face was very smooth, his hair was meticulously groomed, and he was wearing a black slim-fit suit, which he rarely wore, with a white shirt underneath, the collar slightly open, revealing a bit of his collarbone.

The only thing that matched his age was that he wasn't wearing a tie.

He looked into the camera with a calm and slightly cold expression.

"Nuo Chen" is printed on the top in simple and powerful white fonts.

Below it was smaller type: "The new king of 1800 million Generation Y Americans."

Zuckerberg stared at the small print for a long time.

He looked up and saw Sheryl Sandberg, who was sitting opposite him, nodded and motioned for him to continue. "Page 13."

Turn to page thirteen.

The first question and answer session made him frown as well.

The reporter asked: "Hello, NUOCHEN. You now have 1800 million followers on social media, which is an amazing number. Looking back at the beginning, when you first entered the entertainment industry in China, did you expect that one day you would reach such a high level on social media in the United States?"

Chen Nuo: "Of course not, at that time I......"

Zuckerberg didn't look closely, but looked up and asked, "So, Facebook has never been mentioned?"

Sheryl Sandberg: "No, page 14, second to last paragraph."

Zuckerberg turned the page and saw,

"Reporter: What do you want to say to your 1800 million Generation Y followers?
Chen Nuo: Thank you for the Facebook platform that brought us together, and thank you for liking what I share. I am very glad that I am an actor, so that you can see me and pay attention to me. Similarly, I also hope that no matter what happens in the future, you will continue to support me.

Reporter: Chen, do you think you will leave Facebook in the future?
Chen Nuo: I really want to say no, but I have known a saying since I was a child: never say never. To be honest, I am now considering starting my own business. If Facebook restricts me on this point, it may be time for us to separate.

Reporter: It is not uncommon for actors to start their own businesses, but most of them fail. Can you tell us about your entrepreneurial direction? Does it conflict with your cooperation with Facebook?
Chen Nuodao: I don’t think there is any conflict. My entrepreneurial direction is to build a platform focused on video sharing.

Reporter: Video? Is it like YouTube?
Chen Nuodao: No, no, no, YouTube is like a shabby old car compared to what I want to do. The platform I want to build has a mysterious algorithm recommendation system that can push things that match the user's interests to them based on their habits. It's like magic, you know. You don't need to look for it, everything you love will automatically gather in front of you. "

"Of course, this algorithm has not been developed yet. I just have this idea, and I actually know nothing about it. But I am confident that I can make it."

"Because I have a friend who studies information science at Peking University in China. He is a genius, a real genius."

Zuckerberg looked up and frowned when he saw this: "Is he crazy? Does he know what nonsense he is talking about?"

Ps:

Remember Liu Qi raised his hand!
